"Polly had fully intended to be very miserable and cry herself to sleep, but when she lay down at last her pillow seemed very soft, her little room very lovely, with the fire-light flickering on all the homelike objects and her new blown roses breathing her a sweet goodnight. She no longer felt an injured, hardworking, unhappy Polly, but as if quite burdened with blessings for which she wasn't half grateful enough."
